HISTORICAL SOCIETY

From the Issue: 
November 2011
Thanks to everyone who attended our Open House on October 15th and participated in the scavenger hunt.  It was interesting and fun to listen to ones talking about the history behind some of the exhibits as they hunted and found the items.  The most difficult item in the scavenger hunt was the "token of respect."  Maybe you would like to try your luck?  The museum is open the first 3 Saturdays of the month from 8 to 11 AM, or by appointment.

The Historical Society is always looking for items to display in the museum.  If you are cleaning out your parent’s, grandparent’s, or friend’s house and come across items that have historical value pertinent to Troy, the Historical Society would give those items a good home.  We are looking for Troy School yearbooks from the 1940s, family photos from some of Troy's long time residents, small furniture pieces, and items or crafts made in Troy.

Our next big event is the East Hill Farm Cookie Tour on December 10th.  We will have Christmas cookies and some new displays.  Come help us make a Christmas display of early Christmas bulbs and garlands.  We meet the third Thursday of each month at Kimball Hall at 4 PM.  Come help preserve Troy's history.
